CrackedConsole Solar panels can be a great way to generate extra electricity for your home, or even to supply something like a remote monitoring station where grid power isn’t available. While you could simply stick a panel in a convenient location facing roughly upwards, you’ve undoubtedly noticed that the sun doesn’t stay in the same position throughout the day. Therefore, if you can get your panel to move with the sun, this can boost power collection by 15 to 40%.
Europe was weened on low cost 8bit micros in the home, spending in excess of £1000 on a home computer seemed absurd when we were used to £399 for a complete machine including monitor. So how would we ever adopt IBM PC’s with their huge price tags? Amstrad had the answer. Lets take a look at the PC1512 and PC1640 which took Europe by storm.

This project lets you rediscover the 1980’s gaming scene by resurrecting an old Commodore 64 home computer using new components and those ever-versatile Lego bricks! If you had one of these computers, this build will let you replay forgotten games and beat old high scores.
If you’re new to retro-computing, now’s your chance to see why the Commodore 64 was so incredibly popular.
This video will show you how to make a small yet functional lab bench power supply, with the added feature of being able to power it from any DC power source anywhere between 3 and 50V.
Warning: Working with 110V or 220V is extremely dangerous without proper knowledge. Please consult a professional if unsure. I am not responsible for injuries or damages caused by this power supply during build or use.
It probably goes without saying that hardware hackers were excited when the Raspberry Pi 4 was announced, but it wasn’t just because there was a new entry into everyone’s favorite line of Linux SBCs. The new Pi offered a number of compelling hardware upgrades, including an onboard PCI-Express interface. The only problem was that the PCIe interface was dedicated to the USB 3.0 controller; but that’s nothing a hot-air rework station couldn’t fix.
We’ve previously seen steady-handed hackers remove the USB 3.0 controller on the Pi 4 to connect various PCIe devices with somewhat mixed results, but [Colin Riley] has raised the bar by successfully getting a PCIe multiplier board working with the diminutive Linux computer. While there are still some software kinks to work out, the results are very promising and he already has a few devices working.
The Super Nintendo was released in North America in 1991 and it featured an almost identical lockout chip from the NES known as the CiC.
By 1994 cartridge based disk copiers became popular which easily circumvented any region protection. In this video we look at different methods Nintendo used to detect copiers and lock out backup copies.
Having access to 4 watt and 5 watt diode laser cutters, I was excited to see how powerful a 10 watt system would be. The Endurance Laser website made some big claims and I built my MPCNC Lowrider2 with this laser in mind. Unfortunately, my experience has not been positive and I can only conclude from the 20+ hours I’ve put into testing that this product does not match what is advertised.
This laser was provided at a discounted price of US$300 by George from Endurance lasers to make a video guide/review. It cost me another ~AU$50 to send the first defective unit back to Russia. All opinions expressed are my own.
